And so summer has began! I had a wonderful time at the Alaska Aleutian in Anchorage last week. Lots of fun science conversations, great new connections, and amazing sights in and around Anchorage!

You know you work at the COOLEST place when you randomly get to hold pieces of the MOON and MARS at the same time ;)

Brushing off the cobwebs here! 🕸️👋 Spring flew by in a blur: events at the Smithsonian, talks at UBC, UC Riverside, UMD, & a GSW poster at Carnegie (yes, I’ve been talking a lot). Now bracing for the summer travel + conference sprint. Excited for science, snacks, and hopefully fewer airport delays!

When Solimões and Rio Negro meet, they become the massive Amazon river. But because of their difference in density, they don’t mix right away. I don’t think liquid immiscibility can get any more clear than that!

The Smithsonian Mineral Science fellows ;) This crowd is amazing and I can’t explain how much fun (and snacks lol) we have in the office every day. Glad to be part of this amazing group of young scientists and grateful for all the super inspiring and funny chats we had the past few months!

⚒️ So I made a feed! It tracks some of the geo-focussed weekly hashtags that have migrated here from Twitter, like #ThinSectionThursday, #FossilFriday and #FridayFold. Focussing on hashtags where people share pretty and interesting rocks and landscapes. If there are more I should add, let me know!

All scientists are mad. If that doesn’t seem like it to you, it’s because you’re mad too 🫢

Will I ever get used to people emailing me to ask my help/my opinion? I try my best to help but deep inside I’m screaming for them to stop putting so much weight into my opinions I am basically a 6 yo 😭

The Old Rag Granite at Shenandoah National Park… I’ll have to admit I like granites a lot better when I am not struggling to hike them before the sun sets 🥲 Virginia views are always 10/10 tho ✨
